igns American Puckster
By NANOOK OF THE NORTH
Michigan hockey coach Vic Hoo-
ligan rocked the sporting world
late last night when he announced
that the Wolverines had signed
their first American icer of all
time. x
He is Amos Basoon, a 39 year
old grad student who played on an
industrial team for many years.
The team represented a large
manure plant some 60 miles
northwest of Ann Arbor.<
Hooligan said that Hasoon, who
wears a pert smile on his wizened
face, inked a pact that gives him
a per annum salary of 20,000
bucks-plus a nickel for each goal
and 7%/ cents for every stitch he
causes in an opponents face.
Mixed Emotions
Comments on the deal ranged
from deleriously happy to down-

The latest recruiting trip of the
Michigan Athletic coaches pro-

stars ever to be seen in the annals
of the sports world.
The most unusual of the unus-

a product of the sand dunes of
Upper Slobovia, as contrasted to
Lower Georgia's salt flats. Flicken"

complete with two noses, four eyes

two brains.
